“ What a wonderful lunch we had! Alexandra our waitress was perfect! Attentive and quick. Alexandra Could not have been any nicer or competent ( spoken by a previous waitress!!!) it was a busy lunchtime but our food came out quickly and scalding hot! Had the mixed seafood soup and the yellow rice patella with a spiced green sauce! Perfection. Sorry no pictures as we at it up to fast. Get a window seat so you can watch the passerby for entertainment! Casual attire but a few business men as well. ”
“ The grilled octopus is the reason we continue to visit this spot! Dip in the spicy green sauce and don't forgo the warm bread rolls. We'll fly in from MIA and uber straight to this venue! Amazing. ”
“ Food: all the other reviews were right, the ceviche is excellent The smoothie I was convinced to get wasn't good, it's the first one on the menu FYI (wouldn't recommend) Service: our server was hustling, super good Ambiance: very casual ”
“ For Peruvian food, Chalan had always been one of my top places. I used to like Aromas also when they were in that old fast food building. I'm glad Chalan has a location on the beach now. But, its been years since I've been to the other location, close to Tropical Park. The leche de tigre was very good here, with a generous amount of fish in the glass. Lately, I usually just get bits at the bottom at other restaurants. This was much better. Everything else was very good. Tastier than the Peruvian food I've had lately in NYC and around Paterson. There's far more Peruvian options in Miami compared to when I was young. But this place deserves to stay on the map. This tasted way better than most of the more expensive non-latin food I had on the beach. The service here was much better than the other places around the beach that sneak multiple extra fees. No extra fees here. The staff is nice and they don't upsell hard like some of the other bad experiences I've had on the beach. ”
“ After parking on 9th St, we strolled into this gorgeous restaurant and were allowed to pick our seat. The waiter arrived quickly and was very attentive and helpful when trying to decide on what to order. The food was freshly prepared because it arrived quickly and piping hot. They did lose one star because even though everything was delicious the fish and chips portion could have been substantially larger. When in town, stop by here. ”
“ Great for Peruvian when you are on Lincoln road or nearby. I was at the Adobe Max conference and conveniently walked over from the Miami Beach convention center. My favorite things to order is the ceviche, lomo saltado, fried red snapper, and fried rice. The ladies are all so sweet and attentive. They do their best with English which I appreciate. It's a small place nothing fancy about it. ”
“ Delicious Peruvian restaurant. We ordered one app and two entrees. It was a lot of food! The steak and the fish/shrimp dishes were fresh, flavorful, and came out hot. Service was super friendly. Nice casual dining spot for a family night or date night. ”
“ The first thing you should know before eating here is that the service will be excellent. The waitstaff was very kind and attentive and helpful when it came time to order, answering every question we had about the dishes as we were novices on Peruvian cuisine. The food was excellent, I had the Loma soltado, and my wife really liked the pescado al chalan, which was recommended by the server. The restaurant is good for family as well as a good place to go on a date. We definitely enjoyed ourselves. ”
